This blog is focused on topics relating to the death of Kurt Cobain. Consistent with the opinion of the former Chief of the Seattle Police Department at the time of his passing, I believe the evidence indicates that a re-investigation into the circumstances of Cobain's death is necessary.

The Crumbling Foundation

I've noticed of late a certain degree
of discouragement regarding the fact that, despite the compelling
testimony and evidence featured in Soaked In Bleach, the
Cobain case has not yet reopened. While this naturally is
frustrating given the various remarkable and factually-indisputable
proclamations in the film from leading law enforcement and forensic
voices, be reassured that as a result of this
testimony a massive and irreparable crack has been created
in the foundation of lies bearing on the circumstances of Mr.
Cobain's death.

Norm Stamper's and Vernon J. Geberth's
testimony, among others, is on record, it's there forever, and
each day that someone new sees and hears former Chief Stamper express
unhesitatingly that he would reopen the case if he were chief again and those with a motive to see Mr. Cobain dead should have been scrutinized, or former NYPDLieutenant-Commander Geberth
assert that the 1994 investigation team committed cardinal errors in death investigation protocol, that foundation of deceit
grows more fragile and closer to collapse.

And this of course is what those
disinterested in accountability have feared all along.

It's the reason that the deceased has
been shamelessly dragged through the mud in order to falsely hype the
suicide myth and to thereby deflect the proper location of suspicion;
it's why those cease and desist letters were sent to theaters in an
attempt to deter an obviously proper and legal exercise of the First
Amendment; and, among many other examples, it's why an unlawful
campaign to sabotage the ratings of Soaked In Bleach was
carried-out.

Know too that those disinterested in
accountability want you to lose faith – they want you meek
and to succumb to a sense of futility; for this is how they maintain
control and avoid meaningful scrutiny of their actions. Don't give
them that power.

The fact is the remarkable and
courageous testimony of Chief Stamper, and others, is out in the open
and can't be “put back in the bag” – it's going to
continue, in various ways, to fissure and erode that illegitimate
foundation set in place over twenty-one years ago until, finally, the
accountability and justice long-withheld from Mr. Cobain is secured.
